Can Arknights dream about the Knights of the Round Table?

"You... put a knife on my neck and still want to reason with me? Ridiculous... hateful!"

"I think this is a necessary way to make you listen well, sir."

The doctor looked down at Sakaz in front of him: "Going back to your question just now, why do you think your Highness would believe an outsider in your eyes, that is, a foreigner like me who can't even wield a blade? "

"Ha, haha... Why does His Highness trust you? It's just that you use your rhetoric and skills to stir up trouble.

It's ridiculous, it's really ridiculous... Our Highness, who talks so much about ideals, just listened to the arguments of another jester!"

"Your ridicule will only make your Highness sad, sir."

The doctor said calmly.

"After all, this represents your distrust of Your Highness Theresia and your doubts about her; that's why you need to vent it on me. Because you are afraid of this idea of ​​yours, you decided to escape.

You can't believe the dream blueprint we describe. It seems ridiculous to Sakaz like you.It’s just that your tradition and rationality as Sarkaz tell you that the choice to side with [Demon King] Theresia is the right one.

You are not loyal. "

"Ridiculous! Dirty foreigner, you are spitting blood, do you want to slander me!? How dare you say that I don't believe in His Highness's path -"

Marco struggled hard, his red neck and cheeks, roared and shouted at the doctor.

"Stop farting there! If I really leave His Highness, I will have to take the head of your jester!"

"maybe."

The doctor shook his head.

“If you were just disappointed with Theresa’s preaching and blamed me, you wouldn’t come here to confront me.

You are still confused, you don’t know your thoughts, you don’t even know where victory lies.But "he" wanted it.

It doesn't matter who "you" are.Because that guy knows that there will always be people like you and there will always be such a bridge.

They wake you up and incite you, not for me to listen to these bluffs.He just wanted to know what Theresa said and how I would react.

He had to confirm this.Whether Theresia has obtained other powers, whether it will be a power that can influence the situation of the battle.So even a small role like me has to be considered by him. "

"I was discovered, Precious. In other words, he began to realize that I, a burden that cannot go to the battlefield, would become an obstacle."

The doctor is such a speaker, and even if it is covered by the ink-colored mask, it is difficult to cover up the two diamond-shaped brilliance that shines slightly.

This incomprehensible thing frightened Marco; but what frightened him more, and made him angry, was the doctor's definition of what he had done.

"What on earth do you want to say? Damn foreigners. Tricks, nonsense, luring me into telling a confession that confirms the charge of defection, just to play out the show in front of Scout?"

No, no! Scout! Don't be fooled by this man. He only let me go to smear him better. I'm not going anywhere! You want to smear me as a spy for Tracy! ? Right?Damn it, you have no idea what I’ve been through—I’m—"

"enough!!!"

A sharp shout interrupted his argument.

It was until Marco was a little desperate that he used all his strength to turn his head under Scout's grip.

Just as he thought.

The silver-pink-haired Queen Kazdaele came from the end of the field of vision with an angry look.

Kazdare Civil War Short Story - Secret Council of the Two Kings: 3 Disappointment (Two thousand recommended votes, plus one more update)

Theresia comes over.

Looking at Queen Kazdaele, the doctor thought for a moment, then turned sideways with as small a movement as possible, hiding his left arm that was slightly dislocated due to the attack of the rebels under the cover of his body, hoping to prevent Theresa from noticing. .

But she found it anyway.

Rather, after being attracted by the commotion here, she came here with Kelsey because she was worried about the doctor. Naturally, she would pay more attention to the doctor and saw that he was covering up. action.

"Doctor...are you injured?"

Quickened the pace, pace.He came closer at a near trot; now the arm problem that could not be hidden was clearly exposed to Theresia's seriousness. It made her slightly sad, and she called Kelsey for help, which was to eliminate the problem. Aside from the doctor, he is one of the people she trusts the most.

Hearing Theresa's call and looking at the doctor's arm hanging unnaturally at his side, Kelsey's cold face showed a little helplessness, but she still helped the latter connect despite the slight scolding. Misaligned bones.

Then, Theresia turned her eyes towards the rebels.

"Ah...it's you."

"Your Highness, Your Highness...I..."

Facing the Demon King's gaze and Thearesia, who looked sad after recognizing his identity, Sakaz, who had just been arguing with the doctor, suddenly seemed to be deflated, stammering, unable to say even a single word. A decent word that can express what you mean.

But Theresa didn't mind his hesitation, she just became more and more sentimental.

"..Yes, you stood below while the preaching was being preached. You were one of the faces among many of your kind.

You and your mercenaries have made military exploits for us, but this does not excuse your current behavior. "

"Your Highness, Your Highness..."

"You... don't trust me, Marco?

You who saved so many compatriots, you who brought us intelligence from the most dangerous place, you who carried the wounded Askaron, brought back the message from the last fallen soldier, and informed the entire army of the location of the scout team. , now, are you no longer willing to believe me?"

Theresia looked at Sakaz in front of her.The voice was not full of oppression because of anger, but instead was full of grievance and loss like that of a girl whose family cannot understand her behavior.

But this made Marco feel even more embarrassed, and unspeakable pain filled his chest.

His slightly confused brain no longer knew what he had just said.

He no longer even had the courage to raise his head and look directly at Theresia's figure.

Marco could only lower his head tremblingly and silently, burying his face in the soil; and allowed Scout to pick him up, restrain him, and then report what he had done to Theresia without any further explanation.

"Your Highness, the situation is serious with the imminent departure. We must immediately confirm whether there is anyone in the team who is dissatisfied with you - or a spy on Kazdaele. So please leave him to Askaron. In order to catch more pests.”

"Well...until then, Doctor."

Nodding slightly, and agreeing to Scout's application for the treatment plan for the rebel, Theresia returned her gaze to the doctor, and spoke with a little dissatisfaction.

"Can you tell me what he did to you just now? You promised that this was just a safe retreat plan!"

"As far as the result is concerned, it was an attempted and aborted crime. There is not even the slightest possibility of this assassination. Strictly speaking, it cannot be regarded as a betrayal as you imagine, Theresia."

"Doctor! Why are you still helping this traitor to intercede with His Highness?"

Scout was slightly anxious after hearing the doctor's words.

The black-green, three-meter-tall monster with spikes and carapace all over its body that followed Lord Cazdale roared in dissatisfaction; Kelsey also sighed.

"Doctor. There is no need for your criminal law identification model to serve as a joke here, and Scout will not think that he has participated in a funny joke. However, this Sakaz is indeed not among the spies confessed by the previous prisoners. Theresia.”

Like a doctor, Kelsey called Theresia's name; for these three people who were closely related, it was a common thing, and someone like Scout, who belonged to the Tower of Babel, had seen it more than a hundred times.

But this angered Marco.

"Two foreigners! How dare you call His Highness by his first name...!"

"...Do you hate Kelsey? Do you hate Doctor?"

Theresia turned her head and looked at Marco, her eyebrows slightly furrowed.

"Just because they are not Sakaz? Not because of what they have done, what they are going to do?"

"...Yes, that's it, Your Highness! I don't understand, there are so many outstanding people around you, why do you want to let these two foreigners--"

"Shut up!" Scout

"...Well, I probably understand what you mean." The expressionless Theresia nodded slightly; "Allow me to ask one more question, Scout, what is your judgment?"

"Yes, although I respect the doctor's and your judgment, in my opinion, he should be taken into custody immediately and put in a cell. According to military law, he will die. Everything is left to you and the doctor to choose."

"Yeah, it's just a choice. We are always faced with countless choices.

No matter what tricks and thoughts he carries, he cannot resist this desire after all. "

"But even if the available evidence does not link him to the military commission, I don't think there is any benefit in letting go of a soldier who blatantly attacked a commander."

Kelsey sided with Scout and supported the execution of the rebel.

She didn't want this case to expand; just as she could risk the Queen's disapproval to assassinate the doctor today, she could also go one step further and launch an attack on Theresia herself in the future... That was something she couldn't accept and wouldn't even allow. matter.

Of course, as Scout said, the choice of all this lies in Theresia's hands; whether to exile him in line with the Queen's benevolence that has always given many tribesmen the freedom to treat him, or to execute him to show that he is a demon king.

This is a decision that only Theresa can make.

And she is also making a decision.

"Yes, Marco, you are a... [Sarkaz mercenary], so Scout. Take him to see Askaron."

With a sigh, Theresia issued the order.

“The Tower of Babel will condemn you, and Ascalon will condemn you.

Since you still consider yourself a Sarkaz of Kazdare, you cannot leave; you who disobeyed my orders and assassinated the doctor must also be punished. "

"——Your Highness! Do you want to execute me——?"

"...You don't agree?"

"Scout." Silently walked to the side of the stealth master, and the stern-faced Kelsey ordered to the former in a low voice: "As long as he does the slightest bit of extreme behavior, before that...

"--No!"

It was beyond everyone's expectations, even Kelsey's.

Facing the death sentence pronounced by Theresia, Marco did show excessive emotions; but it was not the anger or curse that everyone was worried about, but the ecstasy that penetrated his soul:

"No! No! No! You - you did the right thing - yes, kill me! That's what you have to do, and to hell with your indecision! Sarkaz conspirator - you were a hero of war! Execution A traitor, executing a mediocre person like me is what you, the devil, should really do!"

"..." Theresia.

Facing Queen Kazdel who looked at him silently without saying a word, Marco knelt down and kowtowed excitedly. He even ignored his forehead that was damaged and bleeding due to excessive force, and just shouted from the bottom of his heart.

"I was wrong...I was wrong, Your Majesty the Demon King, you still retain the side of us that we longed for. We have been listening to the stories for decades! The flags of the six heroes are still flying, how many people are listening to you command the Sahara The story of Kaz’s fight against foreign invasion has grown up! How many people are waiting for that era to come again!

I'm waiting - we've been waiting!

We are still waiting for those legends to reappear, waiting for those histories stained with blood to burn! This is what Sakaz should be like - Sakaz must be like this!

Your Majesty! This is right. Let that rebellious Tracy go to hell!You are right! Bastards like him who disobey the Demon King will definitely be ground to dust!

His Majesty!"

………………

………………

………………

Amidst the increasingly fanatical shouts, Marco was taken away by Scout.He was taken to Askaron, who was responsible for handling matters related to the mercenary group.

Kelsey also resigned, and she was going to supervise Ascalon; today's incident sounded the alarm for her. In order to ensure Theresia's safety, she tried her best to remove those in the team who made her irritated, or even The angry discordant notes fade away.

As the two core beings of the Tower of Babel, she must not let Theresia and the Doctor have problems - Kelsey firmly believes that the existence of these two people is the cornerstone of the Tower of Babel's existence.

The only ones left at the scene were the doctor and Theresia, who was silenced by Marco's fanatical words.

"You are disappointed, Theresia. I can feel the sadness in your heart."

"Um……"

Sniffing slightly, Theresia pursed her lips and said: "They just can't understand why. Why do they insist on the tradition of Sakaz and indulge in that way of life that is by no means correct.

War brings nothing but revenge and destruction. Why can't they understand? ! "

"Don't give up, this is the only way I can encourage you."

"I will not give up... I will definitely let Sakaz live in peace..."

Theresia said, taking a deep breath, and then turned to look at the doctor.

"Sorry, doctor, I feel embarrassed to say this, but can you lend me your shoulder?"

"You can take it for yourself, Theresia. But now, I can't give you more than that."

"Thanks, but that's enough for now."

She chuckled and reached out to hug him; burying her reluctance and the weakness seen by the Sakaz in the thick protective clothing.and closed his eyes.

"Let me rest for a while..."

How I hope that the visions I have glimpsed can move forward a little bit here... no, at least within the time we can see.
